Batgirl at Super Hero High (DC Super Hero Girls) by Lisa Yee

The show DC Super Hero Girls was very impressive the one time I saw it online. Therefore, I had to have a hear of the book on audio, Batgirl at Super Hero High (DC Super Hero Girls) by Lisa Yee.I first off want to say how much I love the Super Hero High TV show, it's very fun and awesome to see all the superheroes and villains. This is a show that all young girls could enjoy, just as Monster High and many others. However, the book on audio really captured my attention. I love the entire story how Batgirl also known as Commissioner Gordon's daughter, Barbara has decided to be a hero and put on the cape. She isn't the same as the other teenage heroes, no special powers or abilities. However, her crafty technology knowledge and smarts get's her to be a wonderful hero just like the rest! Something I guess many girls can relate with and though even if she doesn't seem like the typical hero, she shows it by proving her capability to take down the villain, and tackle all the challenges that come her way. Finally, I really love to point out that the entire Audio was wonderful to listen too! I felt like I was watching the show, but only hearing it. It really is brilliant! Finally, any young girl who loves the TV show will really love this audio of the book!Information About The Author:Lisa Yee’s debut novel, Millicent Min, Girl Genius, won the prestigious Sid Fleischman Humor Award.
